I am still at work and as you have noticed not posting. Work is extra busy and my home scheduled just as busy. I need to catch up on reading everyones posts so I am sorry for not responding properly. On Sunday Billy officially moved out which was difficult. More then I thought it was going to be. On Monday my sister went into her doctors office and they started to induce. Different from my days, they sent her home to "wait" it out. Nothing happened the entire day or night, leaving us all on pins and needles. I decided to take Tuesday since she went back to the doctors at 7:00 am and the hooked her up to a pit iv. Katie and went to the barn early in the morning and did her Tuesday ride then came home and organized and headed up to CT. We took my parents with us. We arrived around 4:00, my middle sister had decided since she was also off on Tuesday as were the kids so she took a hotel Monday night and was already there. Since no baby on Monday and Tuesday was off to a slow start she decided to remain Tuesday night as well and called into work for Wednesday. My parents decided to take a room Tuesday night also and they were traveling home with her this afternoon. OK if you followed me this far.........she had a baby boy, at 6:58pm. Everyone is healthy and his name is Liam David and he weighed in at 7lbs, 10 ozs and was 21 1/4 inches long. We all were allowed to see them around 8:15 and had to keep the visit short since she was exhausted and it was past visiting hours. I saw him for about 15 minutes, a long ride and day for a 15 minute window but worth it. I plan on going back up this weekend with some food for her freezer along with a few more bags of goodies for the baby. I want to go alone since it would be best, just not sure how Katie will react to that. I am stuck at the office with a comuputer guy trying to fix my coworkers computer. So I am just hanging out a little bit. Then home to put the old sweats on and relax. I did not get home until close to 11:30 last night and I was here in the office at 8:00. Long day! I am also off again tomorrow but I will be driving my MIL back into the hospital in NYC for some test. Her bypass in her leg seems to have given out and she is in terrible pain walking. Looks like she will have to go back for more surgery after the holidays. I will check back later and send out some pictures.

Congratulations Aunt Deb and to the Mom and Dad as well!
I know the feeling all too well of having one of the kids leaving the nest but it really is good for them to be on their own. My 23 year old who I was sure would be the first to fly the coop since he told me that he would be out and on his own at 18 and couldn't understand how his oldest sister could still be living at home-well here he is!
Hope everything works out OK for your MIL. Thoughts and prayers going out to her.
Hope everything eases up on the workfront!
